Come to think of it, Bai Yu and Zhou Ziheng hadn't seen each other in over five years.
They had once been close friends, confidants, even...
Somehow, Bai Yu had simply stopped contacting Zhou Ziheng.
Their lives crossed again during a school-business partnership, when the company came for an inspection...
Zhou Ziheng was still the same Zhou Ziheng, a favored son of heaven, the kind of person everyone in their tiny county town knew about back then...
Bai Yu stood far away, facing the light. Zhou Ziheng's sunny, military bearing seemed to shine together with it, while he himself...
"Bai Yu, long time no see."
"Yeah, it's been a long time. Five years. Looks like things have gone really well for you."
"I'm here to inspect the work. I remember you settled in Beijing. When are you heading back?"
"We'll see..."
"Go back. There's no good partnership to be found here. You're better suited to a big city."
He knew Zhou Ziheng was only passing through. There was no chance he'd be working here...
He also knew he should keep his distance from the Zhou family as they were now, and from Zhou Ziheng.
The article is good, but the content is a bit more profound than the popular vernacular and cool articles nowadays, so you should read it slowly. The male protagonist is not magical and relies on his own efforts to fight against his father. I also feel sorry for Bai Yu's past experience. I hope that the male protagonist will succeed in holding his lovely wife as soon as possible so that he can live happily in the future.
